If you have ever looked up at the night sky and wanted to know more about the stars, galaxies and other celestial happenings in the universe, then you are not alone. Wanting to make sense of what is beyond our immediate world is innate in most young children, making the night sky a fascinating topic for children and adults alike. For those of you with budding young astronomers, what better way to learn about the night sky, than by exploring the topic together through play.
